Recycled Metal Drop Earrings Bead:Yellow Atsuko Masazumi's book on LaoRecycled metal with (or without) glass bead. Handmade by villagers in Ban Naphia, Xiangkhoang Province. The legacy of the Indochina War remains today in Laos, the most bombed country on earth.

Metal is melted over a fire and poured into sand molds.
